Shadab Khan announces Nikah with Saqlain Mushtaq's daughter, asks fans to respect privacy

After Haris Rauf and Shan Masood, Shadab Khan has tied the knot as well. Taking to social media, the sportsman announced that he has "joined mentor Saqi Bhai's family."

"Alhamdulilah today was my Nikah. It is a big day in my life and the start of a new chapter. Please respect my choices and those of my wife and our families. Prayers and love for all," he wrote. 

In a statement, Shadab added, "When I started playing cricket, I wanted to keep my family life separate, my family has also opted to stay out of public light. My wife has asked for the same, she wants her life to remain private. I would kindly request everyone to respect her choice and our family's choice."

He then joked, "However, if you want to send Salami, I will send an account number."

Many cricketers congratulated Shadab on tying the knot. Twitterati, however, reacted to the news of Shadab getting married differently.

We wish the newlyweds a happy married life!
